Floyd A. Schelby: A special education center. No Scope Score publishes here.

A Scope Score ranks schools a family can choose between. At Floyd A. Schelby, students are placed here by an IEP team, not by address and not by lottery — so a comparative rank would measure something a family's choice never entered. We show what California reports and hold the rank.

Worth a conversation

If a placement here is part of a child's IEP, this page is background, not the decision — the IEP team meeting is where fit actually gets decided.

  • Ask how this placement was determined, and what the annual IEP review looks at.
  • Ask what related services — speech, occupational therapy, counseling — are provided on site.
  • Ask how and when a return to a less-restrictive setting gets reconsidered.
